Looks like the vets are having a tough time fitting into "the market".

Well I can't say I'm surprised ex-soldiers who leave the military struggle financially. I think anybody who quits their job and wants to change careers faces a struggle.

However, I would think the military could arrange state-side assignments for soldiers who have served a qualifying amount of time in a combat zone. That way they could stay employed in the military but wouldn't have to face further combat burnout.
